The average depth of Ben El Gebel is of 14 meters, but there are portions in this dive site which can be 18 meters deep.

Ben El Gebel has a very favourable and sheltered position which makes it suitable for all kinds of divers, from novice to advanced. Strong currents occur very rarely here.
There are soft corals growing on the sea floor, gorgonians, which house eagle rays, turtles, wrasse, moray eels, feather tailed rays, blue spotted stingrays, crocodilefish, tuna, barracudas, glassfish and giant puffers, among many other types of reef fish.
